本研究旨在探討高雄市高齡者老化知識與老年準備與幸福感之研究。針對高雄市C級巷弄長照站之高齡者進行抽樣問卷,發放390份問卷,回收有效問卷349份,主要發現如下: 一、高雄市高齡者老化知識認知程度屬於「中上」程度,且以「生理老化」(4.097分)最高,其次為「社會老化」(3.901分)層面。 二、高雄市高齡者在老年準備屬於「中上」程度,且以「心理適應」(3.99分)層面最高,其次為「健康準備」(3.79分)層面。 三、不同背景變項在老化知識、老年準備及幸福感有顯著差異,本假設部分成立。 四、 對「生活滿意」有顯著預測力的變項,依序為經濟規劃、人際互動、心理適應、心理老化、居住規劃與社會老化等六項預測變項。 五、 對「人際關係」有顯著預測力的變項,依序為人際互動、經濟規劃、居住規劃與社會老化等四項預測變項。 六、 對「社會參與」有顯著預測力的變項,依序為人際互動與居住規劃等二項預測變項。 根據以上結論提出建議,以作為相關部門與未來研究者參考。
